Simon Says Stamp November Blog Hop + Prize!

This month we have a really fun kit that features a great new exclusive Simon Says Stamp stamp set and a random assortment of twelve 6×6 papers from the new Amy Tangerine Cut and Paste collection! And that’s not all! It also includes a full roll of the new Kelly Purkey Ledger washi tape, three Doodlebug Designs Pixie Mini Sticks and some other great items to get those creative juices flowing! Did you know that you can subscribe to Simon Says Stamp’s monthly card kits for just $19.95 plus S&H every month?!

As always, I love taking part in Simon’s hops, and for this one I’ve made two projects. First up – a card.

I used a striped piece of paper + a number of stamps from this kit, and finished things off with sparkle.

I also was totally inspired by the stamps and papers to get working on a layout!

The “love this” stamp in this kit will definitely be used repeatedly on my layouts.

This layout made me realize (Whoops!) I forgot to share the finished journal I made for this trip- so I will be sure to share that next week. For now – here’s my page!

I used white memento luxe ink for the hearts (LOVE!) and I like those neutral papers so much mixed with the bits of color that came together so simply for this page. I tried fussing with it more – but nope. It wanted to just be as it is.

Simon Says Stamp is giving away a goody bag at every stop on the hop! That’s eleven chances to win! Just leave a comment on this blog post (and for more chances to win, the other blog posts as you hop along) to be entered in the random drawings. The giveaways will stay open until Thursday October 24, 2013 at 6:00pm EST and the winners will be announced on the Simon Says Stamp blog on Friday October 25, 2013.

Love both of your creations. The card looks simple to recreate and has good colors. Think your scrapbook page is beautiful. The picture is the scene stealer and you were right to stop when you did. It’s a perfect page.

Love, love, love this layout. The photo is post card perfect and should be center stage just like you did. I have a question if you possibly have time to answer. Did you ever find, especially in your early years of scrapbooking, that you purchase way too much of one artist’s line of products almost exclusively? Even though I love many different products, I seem to be purchasing an over abundance from one artist. I feel like I am being taken in by great advertising and buying product I may never use. If you ever felt this way, how did you talk yourself out of the need to have it all? Right now I am already using the idea of I need to be able to use a stamp or die many times or it is not worth the purchase. Thank you.

This is my new favorite of their card kits! Love the card you made. I am always so nervous about mixing colors, but you seem to make it work! Love that you used the card supplies to make a layout! You make it look so easy! Thanks for sharing!
